July 31, 2013 - Just Passing Through

Can't believe it's the end of July...the past is beginning to blur and places we've been to are fuzzy memories. Glad I've done this blog or it'd be gone forever!!

Believe it or not...this town is Happy!  Check it out Madeline!

Know what you're all thinking....no...I didn't stop in and buy any!!




Went to the Appalachian Artisan Center in Hindman.  It had local crafts - interesting things.  The pieces made from wood were exquisite.  There was this one goblet that had two rings also made of wood wrapped around the stem.  It was very expensive, otherwise it would presently be in the RV!   

This was in a window next door to the center.

The road I had parked on is one way.  So I head out in that direction...and this very small one lane road starts heading up a hill, houses to the edge on one side and it just, lol, drops off on the other!  So I see this little space in front of someone's driveway that I can do a Y turn.  Head back down (thank goodness no one is coming up the other way!), dogs parking, chasing, and I finally see another way out.  The roads in these towns get very hilly, very tiny, very fast!  

As I find my way out of town, I see another part of the Artisan Center - a music shop!  

But it was too late to check it out - I had to head to the spot Greg and I were going to meet at.

Stopped to talk to Greg and these lil pups show up (they're everywhere!). The jeep is blocking them from seeing Greg so they didn't chase him!


He decides to continue on even though the fog is starting to roll in 
and it's beginning to rain...

...at the end of the ride.


On our way back to Carr Creek...

...Hi Jeff!

Stopped at an IGA to get some milk and as we were leaving saw the fog on the hills...
